Cohort VI. Malvales. Sepals valvate. Stamens usually ∞ or monadelphous. Ovary septate, placentæ on the inner angles of the loculi. Endosperm absent or fleshy.

Series II. Discifloræ. Calyx usually free from the ovary. Petals uniseriate. Stamens usually definite, inserted within, or upon, or around the receptacle, which is more often expanded as a disc. Ovary usually free, or embedded in the disc.

Cohort VII. Geraniales. Disc usually as a ring between the stamens, or adnate to the staminal tube, or reduced to glands alternating with the petals, more rarely absent. Gynœceum entire, or more often lobed, or sub-apocarpous. Ovules most often 1–2 in each loculus, pendulous, raphe ventral. Leaves various.

Cohort VIII. Olacales. Disc cupular or annular, free, or bearing the stamens and petals on its edge. Gynœceum entire. Ovules 1–3 in the unilocular ovaries, or 1–2 in each loculus, pendulous, raphe dorsal. Leaves simple.

Cohort IX. Celastrales. Disc tumid, adnate to the calyx, or covering its base. Stamens inserted round the disc or affixed to its margin. Gynœceum usually entire. Ovules most often two in each loculus, erect, raphe ventral. Leaves simple, or rarely compound.

Cohort X. Sapindales. Disc various. Stamens variously inserted on the disc. Gynœceum entire, or more often lobed, or sub-apocarpous. Ovules more often 1–2 in each loculus, ascending with ventral raphe, or reversed, or solitary and pendulous from an ascending funicle, or rarely ∞ horizontal. Leaves pinnate, or more rarely simple or digitate.
